Great review, MFJJ. I personally (after buying cheaper archery products) and the mounted frustrations with things rattling loose, 1st, 2nd and 3rd axis issues, and on and on. I saved my pennies (and, I have 5 kids) hahahah, and bought this sight for several reasons. 1. The level is at the top of sight (it sits outside your sight picture, but very easy to quickly see it without looking down or looking away from your target and knowing you don't have any torque/unlevel shots is huge), 2. 1st, 2nd and 3rd axis stays tight and does not rattle loose - once its set, its set. Huge correction from the ARXOS, especially the 2nd axis! 3. Customization (having 2 or 3 dial tapes are huge, because I shoot all year and drop my poundage to 65lbs to work on form, shot execution, etc. and then move back to 75/80lbs., for hunting - I don't want to re-sight every time I need to make a change in poundage or arrow setup, etc. I know, I know 80lbs., why? Simply put, I can and its a blast to shoot. 4. Sight picture is unbelievable! 5. The sight is very, very light --- probably the lightest sight on the market! Not 100% sure, but its got to me in the top 3. 6. It fits tight in the bridge lock system - there is NO play like the CBE and other sights. There's NO variation at all and the overall tolerances are extremely tight! I would highly recommend this sight over other sights and, I've had pretty much everything from TrophyTaker, CBE, UV Slider, SpotHog, etc., all are great, but my experience is this sight is worth the money, because I simply do not have to battle things moving, coming out of adjustment or alignment, etc., during critical times i.e. hunting with the back and forth, up and down, banging, etc. this sight is boom proof - especially with all the changes from the ARXOS. You can certainly go "cheaper", but I've spent so much money on "cheaper equipment" and experienced thousands of failures with my 30 years of archery hunting and, now I'm going to buy once and cry once. I don't have the time nor the patience with crappy equipment - that has been a life long tough lesson!
I have had it in a piccatinny mount for a week, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd axis was easy to dial in, used 20 and 70 yard to set my sight tape, coming from a CBE Trek 2V in Picatinny I have zero complaints.
I like that they took the steps to adjust all theings they needed to. Hoping to put this on my V3X this spring. Liked the Arxos but felt it needed some improvements.
As far as looks and colors they are the best.This sight really does seem better than all the other guys. The UV scope is way to dark without the light and I love how the yardage is on the inside and outside. It's just a badass sight.
My 5 year old HHA king pin tournament is irreplaceable. I have three heads I swap out , single pin with magnifier, single pin, and a three pin. Just love it. Then I have a Hha ryz on my Atlas I can swap the heads on. Lose a part, hha sends it out for free every time. I love this company.
As a man trying to take care of his wife and 4 kids, but loves hunting and archery...these prices on bows and sights are just insane. Can't afford them.
Im in the same boat as you. Have 4 kids and wife who loves to spend money 😂 I can’t make a dig on that because I love spending money on my archery stuff. Luckily I buy stuff sell it re use the money for more archery stuff. If it weren’t for the prices on groceries, home heating oil and necessities I’d be very comfortable. I make 160k a year I work every ounce on overtime and still broke I don’t understand how anyone making less is making it and I feel for them. Hopefully with Trump in office things will get better for us with bigger families.
I hear ya man. The problem is, people think that they have to buy all of this $500-$600 stuff. There plenty of lower priced items out there that are just as good. Also, I’m willing to bet that most people that spend $3k on a bow set up can’t outshoot what those products are intended to do (ie. .001 vs .003 arrow straightness)
Most people saying this go golfing every other weekend and own a $30k boat. Us serious archers don't play around and we need good performance. I'm willing to sacrifice other hobbies to get the best.
This sight is awesome but $$$. Hopefully BG makes some minor adjustments to their platform to make them a little more efficient. By far the brightest pins in the game - which many archers seem to forget that that’s a it’ll more important than color customizable features.
I'll stick with my Digital React One Pin with Mathews BridgeLock. You can change your digital yardage on the fly out in the field. I can't imagine dealing with manual sight tapes. Why they are not all going to digital with the optional manual tape, is beyond me. Plus, you can have profile setup for whatever, like different arrows, different speeds, altitudes. it doesn't make sense I tell ya :P Love the vids though.
Just got this yesterday and I am trying to sight in my 20 but i already put it al the way down and still not hitting my 20 is about 4 inches low, I think the bridge- lock in the mathews is a little higher than others
You can lower the scope mount in relation to the rail and wheel. The same bolts that you loosen for 2nd axis can be used to raise and lower the scope on the rail itself.
I stopped the video at the price. I have zero interest in over priced products,. nor do I want to support companies that make them. There are cheaper options that will do the same thing.
A GREAT improvement from the Arxos. They have excellent customer service, listen and respond to feedback!!! Great to see them growing and evolving. They could have easily gone the Mathew’s / Ultraview route and jacked up prices just because, but they didn’t. A much better value compared to the Mathew’s/Ultraview collaboration.
How would you compare the pin brightness to an HHA or Spot Hogg? I have had both of those and found HAA .010 pins to be very easy to see, where I needed to move to .019 on Spot Hogg. Thank you for your time.
So i just got my dialed pruf sight. I used to run a black gold 3 pin horiz. The pruf is a 3 pin vert. The pin brightness is the biggest downfall. On the black gold i can see the pins clear as up to and beyond legal light conditions. The dialed is dull. Its not horrible, but i will 100% be purchasing the light for it. I’m also worried about the light though because in my experience the lights just light up the interior of the housing and are worse then no light. I switched for a couple reasons. The pruf looks awesome, the build really does feel sturdier then anything i’ve played with. But my main reason was that my black gold had 1 pin marker on the adjustment rail for 3 pins, so on my longer ranges the 2nd and 3rd pin were useless to me which i didn’t like at all. With this one i get a pin indicator for each of the 3 pins which will correctly display no matter where i turn my rail to
Its really not a big deal. The pins state the yardage they’ll hit on your site tape if you build it correctly. And the pin spacing is designed to be a reasonable amount. Mine worked out to exactly 15 yards when my top pin is set for 20 i get 20,35,50 which i personally love because i don’t need 4 pins to cover that yardage off
lol. these things are costing as much or more than top glass for a rifle scope. who knew archery would get so expensive. a rifle and scope pretty much retains or gains value. everything in archery is like purchasing a vehicle. as soon as you take it out of the shop it's like pulling off the lot, you lose money.
@@KodaCutlerhe could do that without the teenage female uptalking. I am just saying that hearing a grown man do that is too much and it is so ridiculous that i just can’t. Ymmv

Cold Spring, MN represent
I literally just drove by there shop the other day and I didn’t know they were here
Visited the old shop a couple times but haven't hit up the new one yet. Definitely need to!
I like that they took the steps to adjust all theings they needed to. Hoping to put this on my V3X this spring. Liked the Arxos but felt it needed some improvements.
Absolutely! Taylor and the gang over there 100% take what the consumers say to heart. It definitely shows with the changes they have made
As far as looks and colors they are the best.This sight really does seem better than all the other guys. The UV scope is way to dark without the light and I love how the yardage is on the inside and outside. It's just a badass sight.
My UV3 2 pin without the light is brighter than my Dialed Pruf without the light.
thanks for reviewing this, were gonna have to do a sight head to head.
Great videos, I will stick with my copper john $30 three pin though! I'd consider that if it was like $150 maybe.
I like mine. Build is solid I have the 3H
My 5 year old HHA king pin tournament is irreplaceable. I have three heads I swap out , single pin with magnifier, single pin, and a three pin. Just love it. Then I have a Hha ryz on my Atlas I can swap the heads on. Lose a part, hha sends it out for free every time. I love this company.
Can we get a side by side by side comparison with this sight, the axcel driver and the mathews uv slider?
Are you going to do a video of the new Tru Ball Axcel Driver??
Sick sight but my budget friendly trophy ridge reacts have never let me down
Could you please do a video of a bow in a draw board to set third axis.
As a man trying to take care of his wife and 4 kids, but loves hunting and archery...these prices on bows and sights are just insane. Can't afford them.
Eh having 4 children is way to many this day and age. Sell your least favorite and you'll be on your way to a new flagship setup
Im in the same boat as you. Have 4 kids and wife who loves to spend money 😂 I can’t make a dig on that because I love spending money on my archery stuff.

Meh…the price is fing obscene…ill stick with HHA or Black Gold for hunting
I prefer BG, too. I like using their 4x power lens as well.
I love my Pruf but yea it’s not on the same level as my HHA tetra max RYZ just yet. They will be in the next couple years though
This sight is awesome but $$$. Hopefully BG makes some minor adjustments to their platform to make them a little more efficient. By far the brightest pins in the game - which many archers seem to forget that that’s a it’ll more important than color customizable features.
Have you looked through a Dialed sight in low light? They absolutely have some of the brightest pins in the game
I might put this on my rx9 just put the Mathews uv slider on my lift
Does precision cut work on this sight? The slanted sight bar will change the math.
He supports the Arxos and the Pruf!

Sweet sight besides the price
theyre pretty competitive for a high end slider sight.
@ I’m not disagreeing but look at a black gold pro sight or axcel with micro adjust pins ect
Just got this yesterday and I am trying to sight in my 20 but i already put it al the way down and still not hitting my 20 is about 4 inches low, I think the bridge- lock in the mathews is a little higher than others
How much you pay?
Too much
You can lower the scope mount in relation to the rail and wheel. The same bolts that you loosen for 2nd axis can be used to raise and lower the scope on the rail itself.
@YoureSoVane that's what I did, I contacted them and they told me I can go down to the 2nd axis print and I did and still hitting low at 20
@@YoureSoVaneI'm gonna have to start dialing to get the 20
Looks clean but still think BG HHA and SH the best.
I stopped the video at the price. I have zero interest in over priced products,. nor do I want to support companies that make them. There are cheaper options that will do the same thing.

And don't forget they're actually made in the USA!!!!
You don't have to loosen those screws to move the 1st axis
You do. You just don't have to do it like he did.
How would you compare the pin brightness to an HHA or Spot Hogg? I have had both of those and found HAA .010 pins to be very easy to see, where I needed to move to .019 on Spot Hogg. Thank you for your time.

You can 100% carry the sight. My local shop has them.
Another stupidly expensive sight offering nothing the other can't for half the price.
Dialed says they dope the 1st axis from the factory
Mine was a hair off. It all depends on the mount to the bow
A fool and his money...
STOP building vertical pin sights where the pins can’t be adjusted. My god
Its really not a big deal. The pins state the yardage they’ll hit on your site tape if you build it correctly. And the pin spacing is designed to be a reasonable amount. Mine worked out to exactly 15 yards when my top pin is set for 20 i get 20,35,50 which i personally love because i don’t need 4 pins to cover that yardage off
It’s better they’re not adjustable. Less moving parts the better
Does it still feel like a toy?
The era of the $4000 bow hunting rig is here. FFS
I bought an HHA tetra max for half the price. Took me awhile to get it set up but I really love it.I'll pass on the $560 model
Is there a logical explanation for why anyone would need a $500 plus sight? I don't get it.🤷♂️
To look cool on Instagram
$600 and it still doesn't have a adjustable three pin vertical
lol. these things are costing as much or more than top glass for a rifle scope. who knew archery would get so expensive. a rifle and scope pretty much retains or gains value. everything in archery is like purchasing a vehicle. as soon as you take it out of the shop it's like pulling off the lot, you lose money.
maybe not top glass by higher end.
Why do you guys say FIT-ah-ment?
Meh - the new Axcel Driver is $100 less and a HHA Tetras over $200 - looks like Dialed improved the sight but it's not $200 better than a Tetra.....
Uv and dialed are ridiculous. For $100 less you can get the axcel
Dialed: easily the worst sight products on the market for the price.
